Vanessa Carlton Instagram – I have been watching in horror over what is happening in Israel and Palestine. There is no statement that can cover it all. I’m sorry if I fall short on saying every thing I need to say. I denounce genocide. I denounce terrorism. I denounce anti-semitism. I denounce Hamas and its evil pogrom against Israeli civilians, which was the largest slaughter of Jewish people since the Holocaust. I denounce any retaliatory violence by Israel that does not differentiate between Hamas terrorists and the Palestinian civilians who are trapped under Hamas’s reign. I pray for a cease fire and for the Israeli government to immediately negotiate the return of the hostages taken by Hamas. My heart bleeds for all of the wounded and killed. I am filled with sadness that there are people on both the right and the left who will not acknowledge the humanity and tragedy of all who have been murdered. A child is a child is a child; whenever one is killed, Israeli or Palestinian, it is a cataclysm. Palestinians deserve to be free from Hamas. The state of Israel has the right to exist. I do not deny anyone’s suffering.
With love and humanity,
